I'm a blogger too!

So I am new to the blogging world and in looking at some of the other blogs I have come to a couple of realizations:

1)  Every body and their dog has a blog.

2)  Most bloggers are women with children.  (Lots of pics)

3)  I have got to get some of those M&M's with the pretzels in them and try
     them!  (you would not believe how many people are discussing these in their
     blog)

My thoughts are then --what makes a good blog?  What brings you in and keeps you coming back for more?  What can give my words wings?  I think the answer to all of these is "personality."  Are you funny, do you have something worth saying, is your perspective relatable?  I hope so!  I have figured out that you have got to sell yourself to get followers.  With this I mean, you got to talk yourself up.  "Hey, you know how funny I am when we hang out together, well now you can enjoy me in a blog."  or maybe  "I've noticed that sometimes you actually laugh at my jokes, you should read my blog."  If all else fails, "I know that you like to make fun of me and I am not above bribing you with some pretzel M&M's if you will follow me."

These are just some of the tactics I am considering trying.   Since I only have one follower right now,  I better go to the store & get my bribes ready!

Have a blessed week!
